Does anyone have any experience with anthocyanins in flower leaking through to the rolling paper? I saw another post today where this happened to someone so they wet the nugs and squished them in a paper towel resulting in purple stains on the paper towel. It reminds me alot of the wash water turning purple when I make bubble hash with certain strains. In both cases the would be smoker thought the nugs had been treated with a dye. In the post on @todd.mccormick IG page I think it turned out to be anthocyanins but the comments were restricted and I didnāt see a post clarifying.

Youāre absolutely correct Treeā¦anthocyanins are responsible for just about all (red, blue, purple, orange)
colors we find in our autumn leaves, fruit, and flowers.
Particularly coveted in wine grape varietiesā¦

I lowered the power on the light to around 90%, the colas started to get close to the light and some of the tops were getting around 1700 ppfd. Iām back down to around 1500 avg again. I havenāt seen any problems from the high light intensity yet, only increased water consumption and nutrient demand. Iām very curious to see if the increased lighting will improve the yield.

If u have say a temple ball for 3 months and a loose pile of kief for 3 months same conditions the ball will most likely taste better as the trico es will degrade some being in a ball and tight only allows the outer layer of the hash to degrade if it does. The only differences I have found pressing a pre pressed ball of has and loose powder kind is the ball is lots easier to get in the bag leveled out and ready to go fresh right off the tree is supposed to be the best extracted with butane right from the plant. Chop freeze and press or extract is supposed to be the best live resin. Presses is hard fresh as there is lots of water that comes out and u do lose some THC thru the water running off. Iām a super fan of extraction and smoking dabs. I love it

This is the thing I got from the Blue Lab giveaway, itās like the connect style monitor but doesnāt need a connect stick or computer for the wifi. It just arrived so Iāll try to get it setup in the next little while, Iām going to read the instructions just incase lol. It should monitor water temp,ph and e.c. with data recording for graphs and has the ability to send me notifications on my phone if anything gets out of range. Extremely thankful and excited for this

I didnāt have any trouble setting it up, the calibration is just like the pens and the wifi stuff was pretty straight forward. I was a bit afraid I would break the ph probe trying to get the rubber suction cup on but it worked out fine.

Loving the new Bluelab Guardian so far, Iām able to see water loss from evap in between irrigation events through rising ec. Also before, after and during each event which is giving me a much better idea of whatās happening at the root zone. I was able to drop my E.C spike by 40 ppm as well. Iām currently trying to work on evening out the 24 hour variance for ec, ph, and temp. I am definitely getting alot more feedback and control then I could with pens.

Excellent ! Itās really rewarding when you can anticipate events BEFORE they actually happenā¦getting a step ahead instead of reacting !
